strange that "skinny" means thin. it should mean...skinny. characterized by skin. possessing or characterized by an above average amount of skin. more skin rather than less skin. but somehow it means less skin? preposterous

I think this is a good time to remind ourselves that twitter cancellation threads over past events are a form of performative activism. Roasting someone who has since changedās feet over the fire will not help the issues in our society today, and you are not a bad person for supporting them today.Ā
This is how you teach people that they are irredeemable.Ā

Okay so Iām watching early Lāmanberg vods specifically from Wilburās perspective, and man, people could honestly do entire analyses on President Wilbur alone. There was so much there to his character, both character positives and character flaws, that we didnāt really take into account to until they multiplied in the Pogtopia era.
The paranoia Alivebur had in Pogtopia? Where he was constantly afraid that people werenāt on his side, that people were going to betray him or that they didnāt respect him? That was there in his presidency too! So much so, in fact! Even weeks before he made the decision to hold a rigged election, even back when he was just a new president, you could see the paranoia creeping in, in his actions, in his words.
Alivebur getting visibly upset whenever members of his nation would associate with members of the Dream SMP, particularly Eret. (His feelings regarding Eret and Eretās kingship was such a big part of his presidency arc, as well, and I donāt see enough people talking about it). Like, when he saw Niki hanging out with Eret, he got noticeably upset, even to the point of nervous. He started talking about all of the good qualities of Eret that he himself didnāt possess (āIām a president, Iām an elected official, they can always get rid of me, but Eret is king.ā āIām not going to tell you not to hang out with the attractive, tall, silky-smooth, British man,ā āNiki, do you know what jealousy means? (as he looks at Eret),ā etc.) He kept comparing his own traits to Eretās, saying that Eret had better builds, Eret had more power, Eret was more attractive, and so on.
Point being, Alivebur was extremely fixated on all of the good qualities of Eret and the Greater Dream SMP that he, himself lacked. He kept getting extremely paranoid when he saw Niki hanging out with Eret, and being visibly uncomfortable and nervous that she was going to be disloyal to him and Lāmanberg, even going as far as actively making her promise to remain loyal to Lāmanberg. Itās also interesting to note that when Niki says sheāll be loyal to him, he starts to mix up his words again and try to state that he doesnāt want her to be loyal to him, but to Lāmanberg. Only to Lāmanberg. As we know, this isnāt true, as many of Aliveburās issues stemmed from the fact that he wanted people to care about him and be loyal to him, and he was always terrified that they werenāt. But this is also extremely in character, because as we know, Alivebur never wanted to state outright that he was struggling with something, he never wanted to open up about his own personal issues and struggles, his own personal mental health issues. He always made it about Lāmanberg, used the idea of Lāmanberg to get what he wanted. A case in point being how he was later so insistent on destroying Lāmanberg, when in reality, this action was a lot more about destroying himself and using the destruction as a way, as an excuse, to commit suicide. Another case is how he held an election to āconsolidate power for Lāmanberg officials,ā when in reality, he wanted to make sure his people liked him and respected him.
But, yeah. He was extremely paranoid. Paranoid that his people would leave him and his country, and in this case, specifically that Niki would leave him and his country.
āI need a minuteā¦itās fine! Itās fine. She doesnāt..she doesnātā¦sheās, sheās loyal to Lāmanberg! Sheās loyal to Lāmanberg.ā (Wilbur Soot vods, August 10th).
Aliveburās trust issues were definitely pretty bad during his presidency. They were much tamer back then, and he didnāt act on his paranoia so drastically as he would later, but they were still there, underlying. He actively has to assure himself, while still in a pretty panicked state, that Niki wonāt leave him or Lāmanberg, despite Niki reassuring him numerous times that Eret was just her friend and she loved Lāmanberg. Itās clear that a lot of his paranoia stemmed from Eretās betrayal, which started him down a downward spiral that was present in his presidency. He was constantly afraid that his citizens would betray him, or leave him. He mentions how Eret ābetrayed his trust,ā noticeably not saying āLāmanbergā but āhis trust.ā These trust issues and paranoia ended up bringing him a lot of stress, and later downright depression as we learned from Ghostbur. All of this would eventually culminate in him attempting to hold a rigged election to consolidate his own power and make sure his citizens respected his leadership (even though they already did, but his mental state convinced him that they didnāt).
These issues, as we would see, would later multiply in the Pogtopia era, but itās just interesting to see that they were always, in some form, there. Ever since the initial Eret betrayal, Alivebur struggled with severe trust issues and paranoia that he could never get rid of, that plagued his presidency, and ultimately, ended up leading to his downfall.

After moderating various twitch chats for a while I've come to discover how easy it is to guess if someone's a minor or not based on their comments. Also just so you know most moderators will go to all channels they mod to permanently ban spammers and trolls so even if you do it as a joke (like saying ban me) you will be banned from any chats we can ban you from.
For example my most recent deleted spam comments was "Tell Tubbo to stop replacing Tommy with Ranboo. Tommy was there first" and "KYS you wanted ____ dead"
Main ways to tell if someone's a minor is them spamming chats with DreamSMP lore that the person isn't canonically supposed to know, Spamming DreamSMP related comments during non SMP streams, Sending death threats for something their character did or didn't do and mentioning DreamSMP to content creators who aren't apart of the SMP.
For example Phil being spammed about Tommy dying(like most members weren't watching the stream or went on twitter) Hbomb gets spammed sometimes during vault hunters(don't do that), Niki gets so many death threats but recently Sam has also been getting spammed, Scott, Velvet and Sparkles often get comments about the DreamSMP like "Who's your fav character?" "You should be on the DreamSMP"
DON'T PUT YOUR AGE IN TWITCH CHAT ESPECIALLY IF YOU ARE A MINOR(UNDER 18).
DON'T TELL OTHER STREAMERS TO JOIN THE SMP. IF THEY'RE NOT IN THE SMP DON'T MENTION DREAMSMP UNLESS THEY BRING IT UP FIRST.
DON'T BEING UP DREAMSMP DURING ANY NON DREAMSMP STREAMS. ALSO DON'T SPAM IT DURING SMP STREAMS. If a streamer wants to talk about lore or needs to be caught up they'll say something trust me.
DON'T ASK STREAMERS TO REACT TO THINGS. THEY'RE CONTENT CREATORS NOT REACT CHANNELS. For example Hbomb watches Manhunt on stream, this isn't an invitation to request reaction.
Also don't put any sort of personal details such as timezones. It's honestly super easy to track people based on timezones. This isn't us gatekeeping or being mean it's people trying to prevent y'all from predators especially minors. Especially if your username is your actual name.
NOBODY CARES WHAT COLOUR EACH SUBJECT IS.
DON'T SELF PROMO OR PROMO OTHER STREAMERS
DON'T TELL STREAMERS WHO TO RAID OR WHAT TO DO
IF A STREAMER MISSES A DONO, IT'S BECAUSE THEY'RE BUSY. DON'T BE FUCKING RUDE AND GET MAD. ONCE AGAIN WE CAN AND WILL BAN YOU FROM CHAT.
